Notice War Machine with BP and the others in the Infinity War trailer
IDONTKNOWWHATWEREYELLINGABOUTLOUDNOISES
To be fair: they weren't on the "same team" so much as he was just trying to kill Bucky. He wasn't even anti-Cap Just revengeful.
ForUnlawfulCarnalKnowledge
Not once, not even once.
Garouleloup
T'Challa Head T'Challa!
Brocktooon
And only Pepper gets to benefit from the magic cure-all-possible-health-issues treatment.
selpathor
Considering how we see War Machine in the Infinity Wars trailer I'm pretty sure they fix him up.

Not even a day
ChemistsdoitPeriodically
Well he didnt take a bullet for his ex gf. She insisted t'challa to take him back.
snarkycomment13579
Id bet falling x00 feet in a metal can is harder on the spine than a single bullet.
TargaryenLoyalist
Only one way to find out. First, I’m gonna need two volunteers...
pgaru
I would assume cause of Stark's pride in thinking he can treat his friend better than anyone else. Maybe T'Challa offered but Tony declined.
IDONTKNOWWHATWEREYELLINGABOUTLOUDNOISES
No need to speculate. Tony gave Rhodey treatment and he's recovering. That's enough for me, and it's all on the screen right there.
Phobetor42
I would think he'd offer directly to Rhodey
thankgodfordeaddinosaurs
Different circumstances. Ross takes a bullet for Nakia, and she refuses to leave him.
kaneep
This. Also black panther was an isolationist during civil war
MediaMuerte
If only he had some kind of metal suit that could assist him with motor skills
Qualtagh
Tony was exactly the wrong person to tell about Wakanda in that circumstance, and there wasn't an urgent life-or-death thing going down.
jsexton
Tony: hmmmm so my next round of killer robots can be made of vibranium? I can't see that going wrong in any way!
DichotomusPrime
Ultron: "The most versatile metal on the planet and they used it to make a frisbee..."
Blze001
To keep this spoiler free, they also fixed another person. War Machine got screwed.
DemSumBigAssRidges
They hint at WM's healing at the start of Dr. Strange.
IDONTKNOWWHATWEREYELLINGABOUTLOUDNOISES
Wait. War Machine fell out of the sky; Stark was right there; medical attention ensued; Rhodey is rehabbing. How did he get screwed?
IDontKnowTHIRDBASE
Watch Black Panther and note the difference in recovery times.
IDONTKNOWWHATWEREYELLINGABOUTLOUDNOISES
The key being "recovery". What you're saying is somebody who is broke and wins $1M is screwed compared to the broke guy who wins $47M.
IDontKnowTHIRDBASE
Not so much $47M as technology derived from alien metal
IDONTKNOWWHATWEREYELLINGABOUTLOUDNOISES
That's not how metaphor/analogies work.
Cowzou
**SPOILER** Wakanda has the technology to completely heal someone who took a bullet to the spine in less than a day. Like, no rehab needed.
IDONTKNOWWHATWEREYELLINGABOUTLOUDNOISES
I'm not denying that. But Rhodey is already in somebody's care and healing. I won't get butthurt whether they help him now or not.
Dagordae
Spinal injuries take an enormous amount of time and pain to maybe heal. Vs magic tech that can do it in a day with no pain, guaranteed.
Dagordae
BM could have fixed him, easily. Yet he chooses not to because fuck that guy. He gets to handle the years of therapy to maybe regain some
takethatyourogue
this was before they decided to open up their borders. The injury, while serious, was survivable and treatable. (1)
takethatyourogue
Also, as an active duty officer (lt Col), he MUST be treated at a military facility and whatever they can provide.
Molvanian
...And yet they could still take him to Wakanda afterwards and fix everything.
takethatyourogue
No they can’t. At least not during the events of Civil War. Maybe in upcoming movies they can do that, but we have to wait and see
IDONTKNOWWHATWEREYELLINGABOUTLOUDNOISES
Yes. They can fix everything already being fixed.
PhilFreeman
Civil War is the last time we see Rhodey, they might fix him up before Infinity War.
HamaFYI
in the comics, least the last I read, he wasn't even all there anymore...missing legs and arms
IDONTKNOWWHATWEREYELLINGABOUTLOUDNOISES
He's already fixed. He was rehabbing at the end of CW.
st9man
Don't we see him flying over in the infinity war trailer?
Dominiricanish
Yup in Wakanda. So it’s safe to say they help him out
FiratOzler
Well do we?
BklynPunisher
jamisonletter
we do.
Dagordae
The suit's basically a full body prosthetic. The body inside is just the controls, easy to change the control scheme.
Rifneno
You think that's bad? Wa-cunt-da lets little kids die of cancer because cigarettes are legal. Seriously.
BroDameron
It's all about money. Can't blame them for not helping us.
Rifneno
Can't blame them for not sharing the cure for cancer? Uh. Yeah. Pretty sure I fucking can.
BroDameron
If our own people can't find and properly use a cure for cancer what makes you think they would?
TargaryenLoyalist
The US gov’t already had a cancer cure, and turned it into a weapon. Specifically, Norman Osborn, head of HAMMER, used it against Deadpool.
TargaryenLoyalist
So if I was Wakanda why would I give someone something they already have and chose to use for evil ends?
TargaryenLoyalist
And Osborn may be a bad guy, but he was appointed to a position of power by POTUS. Says something about that country, doesn’t it?
Daqonium
That’s a bit of a straw-man argument on your part. They won’t give it to the Americans cause the gov would just use it to turn a profit
TheKindlyOnes
except they could easily bypass the government and pharmaceutical companies and find a way to release it directly to the people. instead
TheKindlyOnes
they choose to let people die instead, claiming we would "weaponize it" not to mention the cure for hundreds of other issues they just keep
TheKindlyOnes
to themselves while letting the rest of the world suffer.
TargaryenLoyalist
It’s not just a matter of “claim”; the US gov’t DID weaponize it. Thank Norman Osborn for that, along with the POTUS who put him in power.
TargaryenLoyalist
Maybe we should stop putting murderous lunatics in charge of national security if we don’t want other countries judging us for it.
StrawberryJamJam
Isn't Wakanda fiercely isolationist, though, and hates sharing their technology with outsiders?
pfsar
Black Panther is set only a week or so after Captain America: Civil War. There’s no reason why War Machine can’t benefit from Wakandan tech.
Volimar
In the comics they had the cure for cancer too. Assholes.
gewalt
spoilers. your comment is nonsensical after having watched the black panter movie
gilgameshish
it's basically an ethnostate
KarlHeinrichUlrichs
At the start of the movie. By the end they are not.
StrawberryJamJam
Haven't seen the film, only know what I know from the comics.
yorhuckleberry
That would be correct
doctorbocker
They were willing to ice Bucky. And presumably attempt their medicine wizardry in him first.
Magisterial
But it's okay to fix a Russian converted spy who was a ex US WW2 captain...
IDONTKNOWWHATWEREYELLINGABOUTLOUDNOISES
Yes. Because he was a pawn, and T'Challa realized the role he'd played in making that pawn's life worse.
Cleverpanda
I mean, they helped Bucky
IDONTKNOWWHATWEREYELLINGABOUTLOUDNOISES
Yes. They did.
cottonballs00
Their medical tech can easily be weaponized. Makes things awkward when people in the Avengers get cancer, and Wakanda has a cure.
Molvanian
...How?
cottonballs00
They have a cure for cancer and can't share it. Which I get, how everyone tries to make super AIDS with the tech.
Molvanian
At the risk of sounding like an ass, that makes no god damn sense and seems more like a stroke than a response.
cottonballs00
Cool
JReedius
A major plot point in Black Panther
chunkblaster
Yeah but point being he's giving refuge to white "criminals" (Bucky & cap) but this guy's black, and they made a point in the movie to show-
chunkblaster
Wakanda is sympathetic to all blacks across the world, even tho they may not be ethnic wakandan
PrincessKikkey
And to be fair, vibranium is most dangerous substance on earth, in comics and movies.
IDONTKNOWWHATWEREYELLINGABOUTLOUDNOISES
I disagree. Stark helped right away; T'Challa was still stuck in doing what his kingdom wanted; Rhodey had medical assistance ASAP.
DeeDoubleYu
Panda*
DarkSock
Yeah but Bilbo gets spine-shanked and they let his honkey hobbit ass in to get fixed while War Machine be all like “uh-huh, I see how it is”
JuanM0reTac0
Yeah but Bilbo jumped in front of a bullet to save a Wakandan. War Machine just let gravity get the better of him.
JStengah
Not just any Wakandan, the King's ex girlfriend. Even still T'Challa only agreed because Nakia insisted.
IDONTKNOWWHATWEREYELLINGABOUTLOUDNOISES
You always knew Gollum would end up getting over on him.
HeshTK
It flew completely over my head that, that was Andy Serkis. I'm so used to him being IN CGI roles
ImTheKimJongIllest
I’m just saying if he doesn’t share it now I’d be pissed
Brammerz
Pretty sure the armour Stark is wearing in Infinity War has vibranium in so I think they'll help eachother out.
IDONTKNOWWHATWEREYELLINGABOUTLOUDNOISES
Why? Rhodey was in recovery at the end of Civil War.
TheWorseJuan
I mean war machine is in infinity war so I'm guessing he got healed
JReedius
Have you seen black Panther? I don’t want to divulge spoilers if you haven’t
ImTheKimJongIllest
Yeah I have. I understand that they were isolationist but I just hope they fix up war machine now.
gingen
The impression I got at the end of Civil War was that Rhodes didn't want much help and he wanted to get through it himself.
gingen
150+ flights or something he said and this is the one that got him. It's likely he wants to live with this reminder. At least in the MCU.
710FPS
Technically Tony could. He solved the instability in the Extremis formula in Iron Man 3.
Mellinialfalcon
I found this very interesting considering the liberal leaning tendencies of much of the fan base
IDONTKNOWWHATWEREYELLINGABOUTLOUDNOISES
Well, maybe liberal-leaning fans aren't close-minded? [SHRUG]
JHawke
I believe in democracy, never stopped me from watching starwars.
TheManInTheWall
I takr it you didnt take part in thunderous applause
Leithoa
"Fan base" i guarantee 90% of the people who saw the movie never read a single comic book.
Molvanian
I've both read the comic and watched the movie. I have some serious issues with the character, but have generally liked him.
Leithoa
Congratulations on being the 10% of people I'm not talking about.
